What anglers said about fishing in Aruba

Be prepared for fishing all different methods, out riggers, down riggers, hand lining, and just regular old rod fishing. Was absolutely a great experience!

Plan ahead better for motion sickness. The first mate recommended Dramamine the night before and then again that morning. We waited until we were feeling sick and it was too late.

Based on my first time, I'd recommend booking with Jairo and Let's Go Fishing. Aside from that, bring sunscreen and take Benadryl beforehand.

Expect troll, and be in shape to rèel in the fish. You may have to help your kids. Even a calm day will be a little rough as the water is very deep very close to shore. Tip your crew as that is how they get paid.

Great time, not a lot of fish, but we did go in afternoon where heat and wind pick up, as it does anywhere. The Father and Son team were excellent! They were courteous, personable and worked hard to get on fish.

Keep in my Aruba is windy. Expect that and come prepared if you get motion sickness. Our captain did a great job navigating the waves and swells but you can only do so much.

Could be better but it's obviously different every day. Hard to judge the fishing off of just 4 hours of play.

Could potentially be rough waters. When you get one hooked up, be ready to fight!

If you get motion sickness steer clear of this experience. Ended up being a really rough 4 hour boat ride more than it was a fishing trip. Only had one fish and that was thebibly action which led to a very rough day at sea under the conditions.

Get ready to catch when your line drops to the bottom and you pull up line a little at a time and should get a bite if not a nibble.

It is windy season in Aruba right now so bottom fishing is the best option unless you can handle large sea swells!

Luckystar customer service was the best, had a medical emergency prior to the booking and they were very flexible. If the specific catch is not listed, the Captian is very willing to work with you to find your catch

be prepared for the winds! The best time to fish with less wind is around September-October. Other than that, you can expect the nausea unless youve got sea legs. I recommend not drinking the night before. haha
